Bernard Poulin & Liliana Komorowska

Building a better future for
all

Bernard Poulin, a highly successful Montreal engineer and visionary
business leader, is committed to building a better future for everyone. Actively
involved in the JGH Foundation since 2007, he and his spouse, Liliana
Komorowska, were recently honoured for their generous campaign gift supporting
renovation of the Emergency Department, the Goldman Herzl Family Practice Centre
and the Hospital Innovation Fund.

The couple was keen on helping the JGH,
but wanted to be sure their donation would have a lasting impact and result in
tangible benefits for as many people as possible. After visiting the hospital
and speaking with relatives and friends, they came away impressed with the JGH's
unique focus and its proven success in providing continuity of care that is so
essential. “We felt that access to a first-rate emergency service, as well as to
support services that help people achieve a healthy lifestyle and avoid the need
for treatment altogether, was important in addressing immediate and future
needs."

“We have had continued success in meeting the growing healthcare
needs of Quebecers, made possible through the care and support shown by
upstanding individuals such as Bernard Poulin and Liliana Komorowska," says Gary
Wechsler, Chairman of the JGH Foundation Board of Directors. “It's hard to
quantify the benefits of such a meaningful gift, precisely because the benefits
of preventing disease and saving lives are immeasurable."
